  • Forceps Delivery and Pidyon Haben
    פרשת כי תשא תשע"ט הרב יוסי שפרונג - ראש בית המדרש Forceps Delivery and Pidyon Haben “Every first issue from the womb is Mine; and all your livestock that produce a male, that which emerges from an ox or a sheep. That which first emerges from a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb, and if you do not redeem it you shall break its neck; all firstborn among your sons you shall redeem. They shall not be seen before Me empty-handed” (Shemos 34:19-20) These Pesukim describe the Mitzvah of giving one’s firstborn animals to the Kohen and the Mitzvah of Pidyon Haben – the redemption of the firstborn male child of a Yisrael. The Gemara1 (Bechoros 47b2) explains that the Mitzva of Pidyon Haben only applies to the firstborn child who emerges naturally from the uterus (“Patar Es Harechem”). If he was delivered by means of a Caesarean section, there is no obligation of Pidyon Haben as he was not a Peter Rechem. What is the Halacha regarding a firstborn child that was delivered by means of forceps? A child delivered in this manner is born the same way as an ordinary vaginal delivery except that the forceps are interposed between the baby and the vaginal walls. The forceps used in a delivery are comprised of two crossover branches, each with a blade, shank, lock and handle. The blades each have two curves; one outward cephalic curve and another upward pelvic curve. During delivery, the blades are introduced into the vagina one after another and positioned so that they straddle the fetus’s head.

  • Savoy and Regent Label Discography
    Discography of the Savoy/Regent and Associated Labels Savoy was formed in Newark New Jersey in 1942 by Herman Lubinsky and Fred Mendelsohn. Lubinsky acquired Mendelsohn’s interest in June 1949. Mendelsohn continued as producer for years afterward. Savoy recorded jazz, R&B, blues, gospel and classical. The head of sales was Hy Siegel. Production was by Ralph Bass, Ozzie Cadena, Leroy Kirkland, Lee Magid, Fred Mendelsohn, Teddy Reig and Gus Statiras. The subsidiary Regent was extablished in 1948. Regent recorded the same types of music that Savoy did but later in its operation it became Savoy’s budget label. The Gospel label was formed in Newark NJ in 1958 and recorded and released gospel music. The Sharp label was formed in Newark NJ in 1959 and released R&B and gospel music. The Dee Gee label was started in Detroit Michigan in 1951 by Dizzy Gillespie and Divid Usher. Dee Gee recorded jazz, R&B, and popular music. The label was acquired by Savoy records in the late 1950’s and moved to Newark NJ. The Signal label was formed in 1956 by Jules Colomby, Harold Goldberg and Don Schlitten in New York City. The label recorded jazz and was acquired by Savoy in the late 1950’s. There were no releases on Signal after being bought by Savoy. The Savoy and associated label discography was compiled using our record collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1949 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963. Some album numbers and all unissued album information is from “The Savoy Label Discography” by Michel Ruppli.

    BAD 67 ALCHEMY 1 Martin Büsser gewidmet 1968 - 2010 2 WHAT A DIFFERENCE A NIGHT MAKES Ah, Serenade kommt tatsächlich von sereno. Weil sie unter heiterem Himmel stattfindet. Der 10. August 2010 ist so ein Abend, ideal, um ihn beim WÜRZ- BURGER HAFENSOMMER mit dem PORTICO QUARTET zu genießen. Vier le- ger gekleidete Jungmänner entern die schwimmende Bühne hinter dem Heiz- kraftwerk und beginnen, die genial verhuschten Federwölkchen über uns abzu- malen. Duncan Bellamy an den Drums, Milo Fitzpatrick am Kontrabass, Nick Mul- vey klöppelt auf etwas, das sich Hang Drums nennt und aussieht wie drei Wok- pfannen und Jack Wyllie bläst abwechselnd Tenor- und Sopranosaxophon. Sie präsentieren ihr Isla-Programm und wenige Takte genügen, um auf den voll be- setzten Treppenstufen zu begreifen, warum die Londoner für den Mercury Prize 2008 nominiert waren, auf Peter Gabriels Label Real World publizieren und eu- ropaweit als Darlings herumgereicht werden. Der melodische Sound des Hang, einer Percussion-Novität von Panart in Bern, verbreitet mit repetitiven, harmoni- schen Mustern aus nur einer Handvoll Tönen die Wärme und den hypnotischen Sog von Trinidad-Steel-Drums, erinnert stellenweise an Harfenarpeggios, mit bloßen Händen gespielt auch an eine Mbira. Das Quartett lässt in seinen Mustern Debussy und Nyman mit Tortoise vexieren. Fitzpatrick zupft warme Bassriffs. Bellamy tickelt, tüpfelt und wischt dazu funkelnde und federleichte Beats. Und schon ist jeweils der schönste Groove beieinander, etwa bei ‚Dawn Patrol‘ mit seinem simplen Pizzikatodrive, in den Wyllie hell und sanglich betörend einfädelt. Der Clou sind jedoch klangliche Accessoires, die er mit Delay- und Loop-Effekten unterlegt, einfach das Klacken der Klappenmechanik, lang gezogene oder kas- kadierende Dauertöne, das Fiepen einer Melodica.
